From: AMIGAWORLD.NET WAS ORIGINALLY FOUNDED BY DAVID DOYLE

Friends,
my time has come.

My 1200th post,
fateful number,
"An upgrade to Amiga 1200" as someone once wisely advised.



How many adventures have we lived through?
Bordering permbans, courting lawsuits,
digging into the murky recesses
of some of the most mental dwellers of this great global network of ours,
this Amiga-World originally founded by David Doyle.

My oh my how many!

And how many fiends have I forever banished for you all?
Templario and his pornware,
AmiDark and his tin cup,
Hotrod and his murder monologues,
Matthey,
and so many more that - ALAS! - I have forgotten.

And equally many,
lined up like a frightening parade of specters,
are the regrets.



Regrets, regrets.



Regret I couldn't cast that same hex on the higher devils,
those vampire-vultures ever feasting on Amiga's poor corpse,
in a desecrating dance of ego.
Trevor Dickinson, Benjamin Hermans, Michele Battilana.

Regret I couldn't coerce friend Sibbi into restoring my
extirpated first ever message!


Regret I couldn't get even just once the enigmatic Robert Bernardo
from lifting his Pinoy gaze from that crt screen and acknowledge my nudges!
(brav-o, show them how it's done).



Who was I?
As Franko left, and the fora wilted & withered without a "villain",
a new one had to be engineered.

And as you well know, the new villain has to one-up the old one.

Who was I?
A Serpentor to your Cobra Commander.
A Majin Buu to your Cell.



Quote:
someone wrote recently:

You seem to remember this forum's past fondly without you sharing ANYTHING of your love of the actual Amiga itself or sharing anything of the true 'man behind the mask'! You carry yourself off like No-Face in Spirited Away


Ah friend,
friend who yearns to peek behind the veil,
if only you knew how close you came to that truth you pine for.

And yet, still unmasked,
the boogeyman is ultimately vanquished,
never to return.




GODSPEED,
my friends,
my comrades in Amiga.

I leave now,
to return to the rich tapestries, the ornate carpets,
the exquisite art pieces of my estate.

Alone,
forlorn,
but with a heart forever filled with beautiful memories.



FAREWELL!

The day has finally come. If we are to believe your detractors, AmigaWorld will now return to its former glory, the way David Doyle envisioned it.

There is a clue here.

We will probably never know...

God speed you crazy scotsman.
May you be reincarnated and return, perhaps as Hotrod's dad, perhaps as Bob Hermans (Ben's long lost twin).

Until then, god speed.

Fear not friends. From the accretion disc of insanity that orbits the black hole of our platform, I'm sure a new personality is gaining mass as we speak

Yeah, this was a facsimile and the malevolent puppet master will no doubt rise again!

Don't treat the king of smack talk like he was a real person! Someone seems to think he's Scottish?! All I know is that he likes Hunter and DPaint and beyond that just wants to stir because he can! No point saying goodbye

Leaving early to avoid the rush, I see. I appreciate the attention to detail in your image. Farewell, in every meaning of the word.

And VVVVVOOOOORRRR, obviously.
